README for mpdevil
Mpdevil is a simple music browser for the Music Player Daemon (MPD) which is focused on playing local music without the need of managing playlists. Instead of maintaining a client side database of your music library mpdevil loads all tags and covers on demand. So you'll never see any outdated information in the browser. Mpdevil strongly relies on tags.
Features
- display large covers
- play songs without doubleclick
- lyrics from 'www.letras.mus.br'
- MPRIS interface (based on mpDris2)
- notifications on title change
- basic queue manipulation (move and delete single tracks)
- search songs
- filter by genre
- media keys support
- many shortcuts
- manage multiple mpd servers
